(Get the code!)
As Moraus said, after disabling KMS the problem goes away. You can disable KMS by adding "nomodest" in your grub (/etc/default/grub) file like this:
GRUB_CMDLINE_
It'll make the boot splash screen not look at nice, but at least your computer won't randomly crash. From my understanding, it seems that the reason this doesn't happen with Karmic is because KMS (Kernel Mode Setting) was added into Lucid and wasn't in Karmic.

This isn't really a solution - it's a temporary workaround. It'd be nice if someone would like into this. I haven't been able to find anything useful in the log files though.
